Title: MLK, Jr. Rediscovering Lost Values
Topic: Martin Luther King, Jr.

Discussed by Martin Luther King, Jr.
with Martin Luther King, Jr.

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. delivered this famous sermon to a large Baptist church in Detroit on February 28, 1954. "If we are to go forward," he said, "if we are to make this a better world in which to live, we've got to go back. We've got to rediscover these precious values that we've left behind."

Despite the many technological advances and material comforts of American society, King argued, humanity had lost the spiritual compass provided by a deep and abiding faith in God. "The real problem is that through our scientific genius we've made of the world a neighborhood, but through our moral and spiritual genius we've failed to make of it a brotherhood."
